Preparing for Mallorca 312 isn't simply a matter of riding more kilometres. You need to choose a distance that matches your experience, build endurance through winter, practise long climbs and get your pacing and fuelling right. Here's how to prepare properly and enjoy the experience rather than simply survive it.

It's easier to get on the bike through winter when there's a ride you're looking forward to on the calendar. Perhaps you want to finish your first sportive, return to a mountain event with better legs or finally enter the gran fondo you've been discussing for years. Choosing that target means looking beyond the finish-line photos to the preparation, cost and time involved. Here's how to choose an event that suits your riding and your life, with eight ideas for 2027 and ways to prepare on ROUVY.

You can put plenty of miles into your legs and still find that a day in the Dolomites asks a little more of them. There is the climbing, of course, but also the early start, the long descents and the business of remembering to eat while admiring where you are. The 40th Maratona dles Dolomites takes place on 4 July 2027, with three routes starting in La Villa and finishing in Corvara. Its longest course covers 138 kilometres and 4,230 metres of ascent, including Passo Giau. Getting a few things sorted beforehand means you can spend more of the day enjoying the ride.
